Randomly Broken Nuclei and Disordered Systems

Abstract

Similarities between models of fragmenting nuclei and disordered systems in condensed matter suggest corresponding methods. Several theoretical models of fragmentation investigated in this fashion show marked differences, indicating possible new methods for distinguishing models using yield data. Applying nuclear methods to disordered systems also yields interesting results.
